Probably, but then what? That'll keep him going until April and next installment isn't until August. We know he'll get pennies for Charles and Bailey. Charles will go anyway next summer as he won't be a League One goalkeeper and will have a year left on his contract. He can keep living hand to foot, but it eventually catches up with him. As it says in the notes, the monthly money is less that outgoings currently. He's just going to keep going further and further into the red. What happens when all of our investments have been sold? I'm still adament he'll be gone at some point this season

If Röhl gets the Glasgow Rangers job
London_Owl replied to danblakemore's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
They said decades. Advocat left 24 years ago O'Neill 20 years ago Walter Smith 14 years ago I'll give you Rodgers, Ange and Gerrard (only because he had an undefeated season, but lets be honest, he's been underwhelming since). Danny has obviously done nothing yet and has the potential to be one of the best managers in decades, but really, he's not up against a great deal of talent in the last 14 years. I still don't think there's anything in it, and just his agent chatting again. -
U21's home to Wigan. KO 12pm
London_Owl replied to andypandy's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Finally some information on the club on lineup from the weekend Johnson now back from injury it looks, so I presume he'll be back in the squad for Charlton. Though Thornton being replaced after 36 mins probably means he's picked up an injury now. Akpobi actually named, whilst other trialist named, so I presume he's been signed somehow - not sure how given current situations -

Chris Powell won't be going to Rangers. He's just joined Jack Wilshire at Luton as assistant manager https://www.lutontown.co.uk/en/news/luton-town-appoint-jack-wilshere -
If Röhl gets the Glasgow Rangers job
London_Owl replied to danblakemore's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
https://globalfootballrankings.com/rankings/leagues/men The Championship is rated 6th and the SPL is rated 32nd - granted I don't know what the metrics are. Russell Martin didn't workout, because he's a manager who has one way of playing, and when all but Celtic are putting 11 behind the ball, its hard for them to break down other teams. Its why every game finished in a draw. -

Wasn't Kyogo Celtic's best player during his four years there. Yet to score in 9 for Birmingham Idah has 1 in 5 for Swansea, a penalty. Celtic are barely a mid-table Championship side. They're both big sides granted, a lot bigger than us. But currently the squads are poor. Whichever league rankings site you look at, the Championship is higher than the SPL. -
If Röhl gets the Glasgow Rangers job
London_Owl replied to danblakemore's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Rangers are obviously a bigger club than us, but he needs to the win the league to get that big job he obviously wants. Other than Gerrard, Ange and Rodgers, literally no manager has come out of the SPL to have a go in the Prem or notable league in the last 15 years and they all won the thing. He needs to pick his next job carefully and I don't think Rangers is it. Likewise I don't think Rangers are that keen anyway. Just remember his final few months with us - he was linked with every big club, and the words coming out in the media have all been the same, Danny has impressed the board. I think its more agent talk. The fact that Gerrard has turned them down shows you that they're a bit of a mess right now. I think its more agent talk to keep his name assosiated with big jobs. -

SWFC vs SUFC tonight (U21's)

There's one reason and its the answer for absolutely everything that's wrong with our club. -
Players told they won't be paid on time AGAIN
London_Owl replied to @owlstalk's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
What do people who are getting angry at the EFL actually want, other than remove Chansiri as owner, which they can't do? I feel they're doing a lot more than almost every other club that's been in our situation. By the end of the week, we're likely to be under 6 embargos and a transfer fee ban. Those are all brushes for the IFR to do their work when they come in next month. -
Of course it’s working. Tuna ******** literally closed the food kiosks at the weekend to try and counter the money he’s been losing on them. Now we need to think of something else so he keeps losing money somewhere else
-
My thinking too, but I'm pretty sure last week Thornton was moved up to the first team permanently with Weaver, Stretch and Johnson and here he is playing. I suppose playing is better than not at the moment for some of the players in that weird position between first team and U21
-
Barrett and Fernandes first games back from injury? Are Onukwuli and McGhee out injured, or now part of first team?

Next summer, but we have a year option

He was the only outfield player over the age of 20 for almost an hour, playing with an awful lot of players who we're saying aren't good enough for League football. There's only so much he can do if the other 9 outfield players aren't helping him. Personally I thought the worst players on the pitch last night were the three midfielders. They really struggled with just about all aspects of the game. But again not their fault, they're not their in there development yet
-
I disagree on that. We signed Osaze Uroghide after he was released by AFC Wimbledon and Dallas signed him for £2.5m in January - what we would do for that sort of money. You've got to remember he's 20 years old and still developing as a player. The loan you mentioned is really what he needed this season where he can learn to do the basics a bit better. He's now being thrown in the deep end against seasoned pros. Its the same for Fusire who needed a better L2 loan or lower L1 move.
-
I actually thought he looked okay second half when he was playing more right back, some decent passes forward. But like all these young players, this current situation is more likely to destroy their development than help it. Fusire is my biggest worry, looks utterly lost

Video- WATMORE KEEN ON WEDNESDAY MOVE!?
London_Owl replied to punkyhorrors's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
The EFL aren’t blocking us from signing coaches, just registering players. DC has been told to show he can finance the season before he’s allowed to buy a player hence why we only signed Amass has Man Utd said they’d pay for his lodging and all bonuses -

London_Owl replied to punkyhorrors's topic in Sheffield Wednesday Matchday
Nixon literally talking so much poo about it on Twitter right now. We know we can't sign anyone until DC shows he has enough money to fund the season and that's not going to change We might be interested, along with Cooper and others, but unless they're going to play for free and put themselves up for games then it's not going to happen until that fool shows he has money -
